Standard Chartered Bangladesh, in partnership with Channel i, has officially launched the 11th edition of the Agrow Award, continuing its longstanding commitment to recognising the individuals and organisations driving progress in Bangladesh's agriculture sector.
Since its inception in 2014, the Agrow Award has grown into one of the country's most respected platforms celebrating the contributions of agricultural pioneers, from grassroots farmers and innovators to enterprises and institutions advancing sustainable and climate-resilient practices. Over the past decade, 88 individuals and organisations have been honoured for their impact on the sector.
As agriculture remains central to Bangladesh's economy and food security, the 11th edition of the Agrow Award aims to further highlight stories of resilience, innovation and leadership that are shaping the future of the industry and improving livelihoods across communities.
This year's awards will recognise excellence in multiple categories, including Lifetime Achievement; Farmer of the Year (Male and Female); Resilient Small-Scale Farmer (Male and Female); Hero for Change; Best Journalist (Agriculture); Best Agricultural Organisation in Research, Innovation and Technology; Best Agricultural Organisation in Support and Execution; Best Agricultural Exporter; Best Climate Adaptation Solution; Rooftop Gardener of the Year; and Jury Special.
